Is This A Cookbook?: Adventures in the Kitchen

Product Information

Not cricket the game - like some kind of refined Saturday morning loaf, no way, not Heston - rather cricket the insect. In 2004 he won the coveted three Michelin-stars in near-record time for his restaurant, The Fat Duck, which has twice been voted the best restaurant in the world by Restaurant Magazine's panel of experts. I have enjoyed watching Heston’s food extravaganzas on TV in the past and this book offered the same level of engagement and enjoyment. Naast zijn keuken heeft hij dan ook een heus laboratorium waar hij naar alle lust kan experimenteren. A culinary adventure from three-time James Beard Award-winning, Michelin-starred chef Heston Blumenthal—but is it a cookbook?

Voor de meeste recepten zal je ook je tijd moeten nemen, zoals bijvoorbeeld bij de Indische curry’s.

De chef is gekend voor zijn moleculaire gerechten waarbij hij vloeibare stikstof gebruikt om deze te bereiden. I love tonka beans for their almost rubbery flavour, which reminds me of beach shoes I wore as a kid when on holiday. Heston is an Honorary Fellow of The Royal Society of Chemistry and a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Culinary Arts.

Heston Blumenthal at Home is a fabulous cookbook that brings science and new technologies to home cooking.De vermelde hoeveelheden bij de ingrediënten zijn zeer nauwkeurig en de auteur zal zelf aangeven als je er van zou kunnen afwijken of niet. But what you have is a whole bunch of recipes which are fully achievable with a gastronomic genius sharing his thought processes on each recipe. I assume Heston explains that the Mexican origins of chilli con carne fit well with the Aztec use of chocolate (chocolate was invented / discovered / pioneered in Central America before Europeans arrived) as a savoury / bitter flavour.

It is accepted by you that Daunt Books has no control over additional charges in relation to customs clearance. Heston is well known for his scientific approach to food, and this is exactly what you will find here. Recipes from his famed restaurants, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, located at Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London and The Fat Duck in Berkshire, England are both featured. Although sometimes personal (like blogs), the information provided is often about the underpinning sensory approach to the recipe.

A delicate hemp milk panna cotta with rhubarb compote, meanwhile, will make a sweet finish for any meal. The first time we tasted the Lemon Tart Recipe in this book changed forever the idea of what a lemon tart is for us. It’s rare that any cookbook gets a full rotation in our kitchen, but with this one, the simplicity of the recipes and the resulting flavours really captured the love of cooking and eating with (if the coronation chicken is anything to go by) remarkable results.

I loved the twists on classics, but chapters on fermentation and alternative edibles were my favorite. In the second part, there are 150 specially chosen recipes, including The ultimate cheese toastie and Heston's famous Triple-cooked chips.A culinary adventure from three-time James Beard Award-winning, Michelin-starred chef Heston Blumenthal―but is it a cookbook? Heston houdt ook niet van verspilling en zal alles gebruiken, bijvoorbeeld van een bloemkool zal hij ook de groene bladeren verwerken, van tomaten zal hij de pitjes ook niet weggooien. Unlike some of the complicated techniques in molecular gastronomy, this book is definitely achievable for the home cook and most recipes are easy to make. The somewhat whimsical energy of Blumenthal’s approach is reinforced by illustrations by Dave McKean, who also illustrated the original The Fat Duck Cookbook with similarly madcap work. Having spent years refining his analytical and imaginative approach at the Fat Duck restaurant, Heston Blumenthal is uniquely qualified to bring the benefits of science to the domestic kitchen.
